About The Event
As Chicago summer comes to a close, a group of friends stumble into the historic Glessner House and perform Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest. Will they remember it all? Maybe. Will they need your help? absolutely. Will it be gay as hell? Without a doubt. In this new one-act interactive adaptation, experience 100 minutes of camp, romance, comedy, and tomfoolery in a picturesque gilded-age courtyard, where one really must answer the question- how important is it to be E*rnest?
